Re: Antique Sewing Machine
Do you have any idea how much this beautiful piece is worth? I have an 1885 and have no idea.....
Re: Antique Sewing Machine
No, I can't even determine a date of this one. I haven't received any appraisal or other information yet......
Re: Antique Sewing Machine
These Free Duo-Rotary machines were marketed by Westinghouse and postdate the 1920's as far as I know. There is not much of a demand for these treadle machines, the common misconception is that they are rare, but truth be told they often fail to get bids at auction or don't sell for much more the $150.00 in many cases.
